Hello just joined and am lookign to build a Dart block based stroker for my Ford. I have my car running now and am starting to weigh my options before I become a member of the 2 piece stock block Ford club. I have a 347 now that is 28oz and running in the high 9's. I am looking for a block that will hold 1000whp with out craking a sweet and reviving it 8000+. Is the SHP,Sportsman, or Iron eagle the that I should do?

Welcome!
For the application you are describing here I would probably go with an iron eagle block.
The SHPs are very solid, but 1000hp is pushing their capabilities.

would a sportsman hold the power?

[Dart Vader]

Yeah, a Sportsman block would do just fine with that power.

thank you for the help I have already started to look into what CI I want to do. I was hoping to do a 4.155 bore and a 3.40 stroke with 9:1 pistons then hit it hard with some boost:D

[Dart Vader]

No problem!
Let us know how things are going on the build as things progress!

your always going to want to go faster, never slower, use the Iron Eagle, this way your covered. And, its not that much more. The SHP and Sportsmans are rated @ my shop at 800 and 1200hp. The Eagle is well over 1500. Hthelps
